For much of his reign as Chelsea manager, Graham Potter's team selection decisions have been out of his hands with injuries plaguing the west Londoners for much of the season. However, following the arrival of seven players in January and the planned returns of three of those injured stars, the Blues boss faces a lot of decisions over who comes into his starting XI for their Premier League clash against Fulham on Friday
Despite the boost of five new players being available, N'Golo Kante and Armando Broja remain as the obvious long-term absentees, while the clash against Fulham on Friday has seemingly come too soon for Denis Zakaria and Christian Pulisic who both picked up injuries in January.
Ben Chilwell, Reece James and Raheem Sterling meanwhile have all come back into consideration of Potter, but the same cannot be said at the moment for Wesley Fofana. “Ben Chilwell, Reece James, Raheem Sterling, and Ruben [Loftus-Cheek] are back in the squad, not ready for 90 minutes but in the squad," Potter said in his pre-match press conference.
